Students find number patterns in the generation of several different types of fractals.

Students identify objects that are the same shape and size. They compare and contrast attributes of two-and three-dimensional objects using appropriate vocabulary. Pupils justify an extension of a geometric pattern to explain what was...

Students identify two and three dimensional shapes and use appropriate geometric vocabulary to write a description of the figure by taking pictures of geometric figures in their own environment.

Students examine geometric shapes. In this geometric shape lesson plan, students examine how geometric shapes flip, turn, and slide to create a pattern. Students analyze the role that quilts played in helping slaves escape to freedom. ...

Second graders, through large screen monitor, study geometric design. They participate in a diagnostic assessment in which they use pnecils, scissors and paste.

Third graders discover geometric shapes by completing a series of games and activities. Using ropes with knots tied every foot, they make shapes such as squares, triangles, and hexagons. In pairs, 3rd graders use pattern blocks to...

High schoolers explore the concept of fractals. In this fractals activity, students discuss Sierpinski's Triangle using an applet. High schoolers discuss the patterns involved with fractals. Students discuss the area of Sierpinski's...

Second graders and teachers identify geometric vocabulary word by searching a geometry website. They create a Quilt Word Wall using the geometry words.

Students create shape booklets. In this interdisciplinary lesson, students practice shape recognition as they participate in a scavenger hunt and create a shape booklet.

Students investigate the concept of symmetry. They use cut out shapes that are folded in order to practice identifying the lines of symmetry. The lesson is observed by the teacher working with students for the purpose of scaffolding and...

Students use problem solving skills to create various models of tricubes, tetracubes, and pentacubes. They classify the cubes into various groupings and identify them as mirror images, regular arrangements, and irregular arrangements....

Students take an Internet field trip to research fractions. ESOL strategies include using pattern block manipulatives and pairing ESOL and non-ESOL students on computers.

Students walk around their neighborhood and school to find objects that remind them of a math concept or vocabulary term. In this real world math lesson, students find math concepts in various familiar locations and take pictures of...

Learners develop an intuitive definition for symmetry after viewing a PBS video. They examine asymmetrical patterns and demonstrate their knowledge by changing them to symmytrical.

Students use interactive geometry exploration software (GES) to create a two-point perspective drawing. They explore basic geometry concepts in and geometric transformations of the model of a rectangular prism viewed from different...

Second graders draw a model using correctly formed geometric shapes. For this geometric shapes lesson, 2nd graders notice geometric shapes in the world around them and accurately draw these shapes.

Seventh graders visualize and identify geometric shapes after applying transformations on a coordinate plane. In this tangrams instructional activity, 7th graders construct a set of tangrams and then answer extension questions related to...

Fourth graders examine about traditional quilting patterns, the symmetry in such patterns, and practice creating patterns of their own. They design a quilting pattern, and groups make colorful "patches," of a pattern. They assemble the...

In this shapes and patterns activity, 4th graders cut out 4 geometric pictures at the bottom of the activity and paste each one to one of the 4 rows of designs to continue the patterns shown.

In this sequence worksheet, students find the arithmetic and geometric sum of given sequences. They identify the next number in a sequence. This three-page worksheet contains eight problems.

What do your pupils know about quilting? Read and discuss the information included here before sending class members off to create their own quilt blocks using construction paper. When they have completed their blocks, provide some time...

Second graders examine the attributes of two-dimensional shapes. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders play a game in order to identify two-dimensional shapes and to name them.

First graders, in groups, studying symmetry, compose collages and bulletin boards.

In this math activity, 6th graders complete multiple choice questions about number sentences, composite numbers, angles, and more. Students complete 30 questions.
